On Sunday the 21st of last month, both St Francis and St Mary's churches welcomed The Reverend Canon Jenny Tomlinson as our guest preacher. A large part of her work in this area of our diocese, sees Jenny with a special role as advisor in Mission and Ministry; part of which includes working with parishes in thinking about stewardship and Christian giving. This is a subject for each of us to prayerfully consider as part of our commitment to Christ's work in the world, and to assure the continued presence of our churches in our communities – not only for today but for future generations to come. As the saying goes: 'The future is in our hands'. Having heard her preach I felt that what she said was so important that I wanted to share it with you all. If you were there on that day, this provides an opportunity to read through what she said in her sermon. Or otherwise the chance to read (what I hope you'll find) her inspiring message for the first time. The readings on which her sermon was based were a passage from St Paul's 2nd letter to the early church in Corinth (2 Corinthians 9:6-11), along with the gospel appointed for the day: Luke 10:38-42. The latter being the story of Mary (sister of Lazarus and Martha – all friends of Jesus) sitting and listening to Jesus whilst Martha was busy with domestic chores. It would be good to look these passages up in your Bible and read the below with them in mind. (I've omitted reproducing their full texts here due to the space it would take up.) Plus alongside this you'll also find a folded document in your magazine this month in connection to the below too. I hope you'll also find it useful and interesting and I would commend it to all readers to spend some time considering. And I would also be pleased to hear back from you on the questionnaire if you'd like to fill it in – It would be wonderful to know more about what you would like to see from your churches, and how we can continue to serve the communities of Rivenhall and Silver End. So without further a-do, I commend to you the below sermon from Jenny: Jesus, his 12 disciples, Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. A total of 16 people for supper, and the person who should be helping you cook is sitting listening to someone talk! No wonder Martha gets irritated – distracted, Jesus calls it. We use that word when we’re drawn away from what we should be doing by something else – for teenagers at least it always seems to be Facebook. At work it might be an interesting piece of news as we’re on our way to the photocopier; in the last few days my husband starts to make a cup of tea and gets distracted by the Tour de France or the cricket score… The unusual angle here is that Jesus implies that far from Mary being distracted from what she should be doing by Jesus’ teaching, it’s Martha who is distracted and worried! Now I’m sure I’m not the only one to find this story challenging – but Jesus is saying something very important about priorities. In an age when women weren’t expected to learn from a rabbi, Mary chooses to listen to Jesus, and he praises her choice of what 1 really matters. Like Mary and Martha we all have to make choices about what we do, and to decide what is important. That’s true of every aspect of our Christian lives: How we spend our time, what work we do, what areas of church life we get involved with, and how we use our money. A couple of years ago Victoria Darbishire on Radio 5 live asked listeners to text in and say what they didn’t want to give up in the recession. If you’re having to cut back, she said, what is it that you want to hang on to, what really matters? Some people might buy cheaper food, or go less to the gym, in order still to be able to afford a drink on a Friday night or the occasional curry. The reality of how we spend our time and money often reveals what is important to us. Where does God feature in that? Mary found Jesus so compelling, so interesting that she sat at his feet and listened. This passage in Luke’s gospel follows the story of the Good Samaritan, and I wonder if Jesus was telling stories like that one, illustrating how God’s people were to behave, giving a totally different perspective on life, offering teaching that was fresh and new, where love was the priority, the guiding principle. Mary gives us a picture of discipleship; you might say that’s it’s a picture of prayer. If Martha was anything like me, she will have been banging and clattering around for quite a few minutes before she burst in and asked Jesus to tell Mary to help her. But Mary doesn’t get distracted by what else is going on, and manages to stay focused on Jesus. That’s one of the marks of discipleship – the commitment that keeps our attention where it should be. Jesus points out to Martha that ‘Mary has chosen the better part’. Jesus doesn’t oblige or compel us to do anything, but invites and encourages us. That’s true of our giving. Paul writes to the Corinthians that ‘God loves a cheerful giver’. Let’s not think of our giving to God as being like income tax or a subscription to a group – it’s our free, loving, grateful response to the God who loves us beyond anything we can imagine and has given everything to us in Christ. You see the love of a couple on their wedding day, or the devoted gaze of new parents at their tiny baby, and you can see the beauty of it, the romance. But real love translates into getting up in the night when the baby cries, going to the shop in the rain because you’ve run out of milk, putting the bins out and getting the laundry done, It doesn’t sound quite so beautiful or romantic but it’s real love. In the same way, being committed to Christ translates into giving what we can give in order for his Kingdom to grow, for his Church to be effective. Of course that won’t just be money. God invites us to worship, to 2 pray, to give our time and energy. But in the same way that money is necessary in the rest of our life, so it is in the church. Paul tells the Corinthians that they are to give ‘as you have made up your mind’. In other words, Christian giving is to be deliberate, planned, carefully thought through, rather than what we happen to have in our purse or pocket on a Sunday morning. We need to sit down and work out, prayerfully before God, what it’s right for us to give. That is something very personal and so it’s kept highly confidential. We’re accountable to God for our giving and no-one else. If we are already giving regularly, then we review the amount we give. Does it really reflect what we can manage? What does it say about the importance of God in our lives? Maybe we think that what we can offer isn’t worth giving, but remember how greatly Jesus valued the two small coins that the widow put in, because it was all she had (Luke 21:1-4).

There are many rural communities in Essex - about half of the churches and parishes in the diocese are defined by DEFRA as ‘rural’ (settlements of less than 10,000). Farming remains an important part of the local economy with 70% of the area of Essex being agricultural land. There are three Episcopal Areas (Colchester, Barking and Bradwell) , 24 Deaneries, 463 parishes and approximately 500 clergy. The Rt Revd Stephen Cottrell has been Bishop of Chelmsford since 2010. Centre for Excellence in Rural Ministry In the Chelmsford Diocese we are looking to develop new, sustainable, attractive, mission focussed models of multi-parish ministry that will equip the church for the twenty first century. For many years the Diocese of Chelmsford has supported the work of a part-time Diocesan Rural Adviser/Agricultural Chaplain, a post currently held by the Revd. Janet Nicholls. Last year, we appointed Revd Lydia Smith to work as a Team Vicar in a rural multi-parish in the Colchester Episcopal Area and to be Director of the Centre for Excellence in Rural Ministry. We have an exciting vision for the future of rural ministry. We are now seeking to appoint a person who will work three days a week (half a stipend) as Area Rural Adviser to help develop the Centre for Excellence in Rural Ministry.

  • Essex Minerals Local Plan Adopted July 2014 Essex Minerals Local Plan - Foreword
    Essex Minerals Local Plan Adopted July 2014 Essex Minerals Local Plan - Foreword Foreword According to the British Geological Society, on average each person in the UK uses more than ten tonnes of minerals and metals in one year (the same weight as seven cars). This figure includes minerals products you use at home and a share of minerals, metals and fuels used in leisure, retail, transport, work and public facilities. Because minerals are so important to our economy and quality of life, the Government requires us to ensure there are enough reserves to meet the needs of construction and other industries. In Essex the main minerals we produce are sand and gravel (aggregates). However, the extraction of minerals can have impacts on the landscape, environment and the quality of life of local residents. Such impacts are to be minimised through the use of planning policies, contained in this document, for the supply of minerals. The MLP provides up-to-date planning policy for minerals development in Essex until 2029. In particular, it gives certainty as to the location of future minerals development i.e., through site allocations. Landowners and mineral companies with preferred or reserve sites in this Plan will need to come forward with applications for planning permission setting out how impacts will be 1 addressed, e.g., through Environmental Impact Assessments. The Plan includes details of how mineral sites should be restored and reused allowing us to keep the balance between the demand for minerals against the need to protect the environment and quality of life. We’re challenging site promoters, in particular, to promote habitat creation as an after-use.
